Wonder if we met on the road, Fiona. We went down into Wharfedale, through Ribblesdale and back by Ingleborough to Hawes where we had lunch in the Creamery - whilst sitting there I pointed out your house to the farmer.

What a beautiful post! My family spent Christmas 2001 in Kettlewell in the Yorkshire Dales - is that anywhere near you? My parents (they lived near Manchester at the time) rented a cottage (actually, it was a three-bedroom house) - my husband, daughter and I flew from Chicago and my sister and her husband flew from Oregon. We had a wonderful family Christmas in the most picturesque surroundings. Carolers came to the house the first night we were there, we went to the Christmas Eve service at the village church and ate lots of pub meals. It was fabulous. There's a lovely tea room just over the bridge in the village if you ever venture over that way.
